I seem to recall windows has 90% of the market, Mac 9% and Linux ,9% (easy to remember rough figures). If Linux is 10% here, that's 11 times more than the average population. Hmm ... maybe that is a bit much.<br>
By the way, Nate ... why not filter out internal traffic on google analytics? You can easily add a custom filter with the companies external IP. (Unless of course you want to see that information.) I still find Analytics amazing ... AND free. Can't ask for more than that.</p>

Sparkfun should only care about getting customers regardless of their customers preference. This posts seems to imply that 53% of Sparkfun customers are more intelligent because they use Firefox and according to some Firefox rocks.</p>

I think the chances of <strong>google</strong> analytics incorrectly identifying <strong>google</strong> chrome are pretty slim.</p>

I'm a bit surprised by that large chunk of Safari users. Do you have an idea what percentage of users are on OSX or Linux?</p>

It looks like a bit over 6% of the requests in our most recent log came from the SparkFun offices. All but a tiny handful (there are some Mac users in the building) were Firefox, and maybe 8% of them were to some portion of the public-facing sparkfun.com where Google Analytics sees the pageviews.<br>
So, yeah, not much.</p>

I browse Sparfun exclusively with Safari. What's the wireless interface on that rover?</p>

I think those are Google Chrome users. I know that some hosts mistake Safari for Chrome.<br>
